FORMER soap star Cheryl Fergison is flogging tickets to fans to see her perform at the opening of a Chinese takeaway.
Cheryl – who once played the role of Heather Trott in EastEnders – last year opened up about her money struggles.
The 59-year-old emotionally told how she was forced to turn to a food bank and claim benefits for help.
But in a new bid to make cash, Cheryl will perform at a new Chinese takeaway throughout the weekend.
Posting on social media, the former soap actress said she’ll sing for diners at the The Dragon Lounge in Blackpool.
Tickets cost £15, which includes a Chinese supper.
Mum-of-one Cheryl will serenade customers with her vocals on Saturday and Sunday (Feb 1 and 2), kicking off at 7pm.
The new takeaway replaces The Great Fortune House which was closed down due too multiple health code violations.
Last year its former manager plead guilty to eleven offences relating section 19 of The Food Safety & Hygiene (England) Regulations 2013.
Promoting the opening, Cheryl said: “Hi everyone, now then, first and second of February you know where you need to be.
“The Dragon Lounge in Cleveleys, 120 Victoria Road West, it’s a new business, I’ll be hosting all weekend, it’s Chinese New Year.”

She added: “I’ll be hosting both events, it will be a singing, karaoke and quiz. Oh yeah, general knowledge quiz, fantastic.
“Please come along, you don’t have to book you can if you want to, you can if you want to but you don’t have to book come along, we will fit you in no matter what.”
Cheryl recently begged her fans to “keep asking” TV bosses to hire her.
One of her followers had suggested she could work on Coronation Street.
The actress then replied: “Keep asking them please it’s just up the road that would be fantastic.”
